With teen girls camping out since 4 a.m., its no surprise the Jonas brothers were surrounded by security! Nick and Joe Jonas made a special appearance in support of the iWin 5K Fun Run/Walk, benefiting Special Olympics Florida on the main campus of Nova Southeastern University on Monday, September 6th, 2010 in Davie, Florida.
This event is part of a series of races Jonas has hosted and participated in through his Change for the Children Foundation.
“The run is special because it’s not a race, everybody is a winner, everybody knows that they’re giving back and they have an opportunity to get out there and be able to give. I think for all of us, me and my brothers are always trying to do something like that with certain charities or things that we have a passion for and this is something I definitely have a heart for,” Joe Jonas told CBS4′s Christina Loren.
Joe confessed that the Special Olympics hold a special place in his heart and he enjoys spending his free time helping the cause.
“I think it’s just these amazing athletes are so special to me. They are so talented and I think when I see them at my concerts they are just an inspiration to me and I just want to be able to give back to them.”
What a sweetheart!
The boys helped raise $95,000 for Special Olympics, a whole $45,000 more than they hoped to raise!
